Casio WQV-2BS-8UR
The WQV-1 is a compact digital watch that has a digital black and white camera built into it. Thanks to the 1Mb memory, the watch will store 100 images in its databank at 120 x 120 dpi (20mm x 20mm) in 16 bit greyscale monochome. Via Infra Red the images can then be beamed from the watch to a PC (in JPEG format) when used with an Infra red receiver or images can be sent directly to another WQV-1 watch. The watch works just like a normal digital camera and so as soon as you have taken the picture you can review your results on the watch screen. You can then either keep the image or delete it and take another. Better still the watch has a facility to type a person's name, details or phone number on that page and so you can call up a person's photo and then see their details.
The watch also features contrast controls so that you can set the contrast of the screen in different light and also has a facility to tell the watch if you are indoors or outdoors to help take better pictures. Photos can be taken in three ways. In "normal" node you just press the shutter button and you have a normal monochrome photo, in "Merge" mode you can take two photos and each will fill half the screen so that two images are merged together. There is also an "art" mode that takes the image and turns it into a black and white blob that a few of us might call "art".
Power for the watch comes from a CR2032 battery, that might not mean nuch but they are standard watch and motherboard batteries for PCs so will be neither expensive to replace or hard to find. The watch has a great feature that actually turns off the screen when ever you take the watch off and so helps conserve power. When the battery is running low the watch will display a low battery warning. Best of all if the battery dies you do not lose the images and so you can change the battery without worry.
Oh yes, the watch also tells the time, has a 1/200 second stopwatch, a timer and 5 alarms
